Cougars Travel to Lake Wales for Tough Game Against Warner

(11/14/09) Lake Wales, FL-The Warner Royals upended the Cougars 97-60 in men's basketball on Saturday evening in Lake Wales. The bigger and stronger host team dominated the boards against a smaller Cougar squad by outrebounding CCC by a 41-26 margin.

Down by 15, midway through the first half, CCC made a strong run and brought the score to within 6 with 3 minutes to go in the half. However, the Royals tightened up their defense and went on a 15-0 run down the stretch in the first half to take a 56-37 lead into the half.

Lonzo Saunders had 11 points to lead the Cougars in scoring. Bryan Spears added 7 boards for CCC as their record was evened at 1-1.
